1. Radioactivity from oral doses of N-isopropyl[1-14C]acetanilide was excreted in urine (53.5%), faeces (8.1%) and expired air (17.0%) of rat. 2. Enterohepatic circulation occurred during formation of approximately 34% of the metabolites. N-isopropylacetanilide was metabolized by oxidation in all moieties of the molecule with subsequent conjugation with glucuronic and sulphuric acids. 3. The sulphate ester of 4'-hydroxyacetanilide (acetaminophen) was the major metabolite (28 % of the dose).

D000083 Acetanilides Compounds based on N-phenylacetamide, that are similar in structure to 2-PHENYLACETAMIDES. They are precursors of many other compounds. They were formerly used as ANALGESICS and ANTIPYRETICS, but often caused lethal METHEMOGLOBINEMIA. Acetylanilines,N-Phenylacetamides
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
